NCT ID NCT07598799

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a new, simple procedure done right after doctors remove a blood clot from the brain in severe stroke patients. The procedure involves briefly inflating and deflating a tiny balloon to gently restore blood flow, which may prevent extra brain damage. About 288 to 448 adults who had a large-vessel stroke will take part. The goal is to see if this technique helps people recover better and live more independently three months later.
